how to stop ghost calls from non working numbers

how to stop ghost calls from non working numbers

I get ghost calls from randomly changing numbers about once a day, typically in the middle of the night. They also usually leave a message, blank but takes up message space and indicates I have a message. I call the numbers back sometimes and they are always not a working number. I can block each time but they always come from a new number. Any ideas on what to do to stop this madness?

Re: how to stop ghost calls from non working numbers

It looks more like a boycott, because very rarely the caller answers. It happens to me sometimes even ten per day. The purpose is clear: discouragement of picking up the phone and clog the answering systems. In other words to discourage and minimize the quick communication. Historically, communications were cut when radical social changes occurred tn the world. That's right, as mentioned above, there must be some kind of benefit for someone if funds are invested in such endeavor..

@M14571504M You are wrong. Those calls are placed by a robo dialer. When the computer detects the call has been answered, it is supposed to connect the call to an agent (or available scammer). That may not happen immediately, if you wait long enough usually someone will be there but it is also possible all the agents/scammers are busy on other calls.

For someone with online business, you should know ‘online’ is not 2 words.

You should also know that Alphabet is Google and Alphabet is part of the Robocalls Strikeforce. For gosh sakes stop spouting nonsense and read the available information

Been sober 22 yrs and rather you realize this is real stuffIf you ever want to meet and I can show you the evidence that this is howgoogle yahoo and bing servers are merging to fight spam with spam.And the past campaign I had was taken by the marketer when we parted andthe new business name for 4 yrs still confuses bing and yahoo and google isstill not willing to show me because of thatBecause of my business nameThey have to use the cloud ai to spam my business with callsBecause it is automated to show relevanceAnd my campaign is more relevant then most business in the cities I serviceso to keep me from getting additional clicksI qualify for so many top ranks because of my site on their cloudIt is AI was built like this to specifically shut down websites that hasbad links that do not matchLike address and website in more than one place and same names etc.So the real question isIf you did not have something intelligent to add to this or a solutionWhy would you use drugs to justify my statements? You could have claimedcrazy or other choicesI think maybe you should follow me to my group and get your own white tagMine is 22 yrs old so hey do you really have any suggestions that wouldhelp ?And if notLook into this for yourself mr burris

Please discover punctuation. It’s very difficult to read one long run on sentence.

Re: how to stop ghost calls from non working numbers

Along with those who place this calls, I would keep accountable, for this never ending harassement, the phone service providers for accepting to use the "dirty" phone line network that inevitable compromise the provided service to the customer. A reputable carpenter uses only wood in good sound condition without being rotted or containing carpenter ants, or other parasite eggs in it.

I am getting about ten of these random calls a day. I am so annoyed. The cruelest part is that I saw many very old persons, mostly alone, barely walking (some with advanced arthritis) with great effort go to pick up the phone in hope that a loved one calls them (which, lets recognize, is quite rare in most cases). HOW CRUEL! And how many other younger handicapped persons are in the same situation! Any of us will reach at some point in time that stage., including those who perpetrate this terribly shameless calls calls.

I also wonder if there is a connection between this phenomenon and the constant recent cyber attacks by hostile entities to discourage in a large scale the public communications.

Re: how to stop ghost calls from non working numbers

The wood analogy is off. This is someone using a wood substitute, but it looks like the real thing until you cut it. But more than that, This is someone taking an existing structure and using it in a way not intended. A creeper in the attic, so-to-speak.

There is a tremendous effort to identify the real from fake and block the fake. Follow the news, read what the problem is.
